I have a python script that I wan to run automatically on the G-Code output from Simplify3D. I'd like to do this at the post-processing step. But I don't see a way in the scripts settings to trigger an outside script/application to run. Is there a way to do this? Note: the script performs a very complex mathematical calculation. It would be difficult if not impossible to encode this directly as a Simplify3D script.
Alternately is there an exposed API for creating full-fledged plugins?
Thanks.

Re: Running external python script?
At the bottom of the scripts tab there is a box to enter post processing terminal commands. You can include [output_filepath] and [output_filename] for command line parameters to your python script. Does this not work for you?
